The Tripod Insider


We have a new father in the building! Kayla Marie Garabedian arrived at 12:45 a.m. on November 15, 1999, to the delight (and relief) of parents Rich and Lori. Kayla, who weighed in at 8 lbs., 6 oz., "really made Mommy and Daddy work," says the proud papa! Both Lori and baby are healthy and happy, to everyone's joy. A huge "Congratulations!" and the best of luck to you, Rich and Lori. We'll see you after you've had a chance to rest!

Tripod's been pretty busy entertaining this week. Maggie had a bunch of stargazers over to watch Wednesday's Leonid meteor shower. We're also hosting 18 Korean journalists who are here to learn just what Tripod's all about. I think they're pretty impressed! Tripod Korea launched about a month ago, and has already signed up half a million members. We're jealous!

Next week is a short one, so in case you don't get a chance to read the Insider (shame!), have a wonderfully delicious, happy Thanksgiving! Eat plenty, rest well, and enjoy yourselves!
